Turn out giving uneducated people the right to vote can be detrimental. Populism, the rule of majority is just mob rule. Gang rape is technically democracy. That why democracy need a filter for voting right. Not that i'm supporting racism but back then, only landowner could vote, you need people who have a long term stake in the game for it to work, otherwise, everyone will just drive the country down like it a rental and acting in their own interest without regard for the collective. For Rhodesia, pretty much all the landowning farmer are white, so being white act as a filter.

This statement of yours makes me believe you are deeply uninformed or just an internet troll.
As a white Zimbabwean, I can say Rhodesia had its brilliant points as well as its flaws. We had a good, prosperous, well-run, well-lead, successful nation. A good, noble and kind people with a good, courageous leader. To this day, I am proud of my nation and countrymen. However the way we treated the blacks was deeply unfair and wrong. Rhodesia is gone now. We should have integrated the Africans into our government along with us whites. Creating an equal country for all. Blacks and Whites United. However, I have a dream that Zimbabwe will rise again. It will, mark my words. A Wildlife Capital and Breadbasket of Africa once again. Successful, prosperous and free. A land Built on Loving Kindness, Compassion, Unity, Tolerance and Friendship for all living Beings and people. A land where our wildlife and national parks continue to thrive, the people are happy and the country one of the richest in Africa again. Zanu PF will fall. We the people will rise. All of Zimbabwe, both human and animal will be happy, healthy, loved and protected. It is coming. It will be done. Amen. 💚💚🇿🇼🇿🇼🐾🐾
@Kristina Indriliunaite Notice! To the right wing extremists from the USA and beyond who likely will reply to my comment, I will politely say your ideals are no longer tolerated here. Your beliefs are fast dying out. We Rhodesians fought against hate and the nazis so you wouldn't find a place here even if Rhodesia still existed and would be kicked out of my country as what happened to US extremist Harold Covington. You will find most white Zimbabweans and South Africans today deeply opposed to your hateful dogma. Yes, I am proud to be white. I do not support woke ideologies. I may be no liberal. But I firmly believe with all my heart that Loving-Kindness, Unity and Tolerance is the only way for humanity to evolve and move forward. All people and beings are equally important, all deserving of kindness, compassion and respect. You may not like it but it's the truth. Please either evolve and change for the better or die off. The choice is yours.

More than most Rhodies would. Tens of thousands were "taking the gap" every year by the late 1970s. The eight RR battalions went from being all white units to being largely black as a result. Don't be so over dramatic.
@@markaxworthy2508although I think it’s widely agreed that “Zimbabwe” would be better if it was still Rhodesia, you unfortunately get some children such as this who get too caught up in nationalism and it leads to comments like this.
@@2ndcomingofFritz This is something of a theme on the US extreme Right. Ten years ago their fetish was the Waffen-SS. Today it is the all-white RLI. The White kid who massacred Black churchgoers had a Rhodesian flag sewn on his camouflage. There are videos about the "Rhodesian" FAL rifle and about Rhodesian "brushstroke" camouflage. (I never heard anyone refer to "brushstroke" camouflage out there.) They are often inventing a Rhodesia that never existed to fit with their own existing prejudices. Materially Zimbabweans might well have been better off under Rhodesian rule today, but under Rhodesia the 95% of the population who are Black would still have no prospect of social and political betterment, so they would still have widely opposed it.
I’m North African Arab. After seeing what the Tanzanians did to the Arabs of Zanzibar, what mugabe did to the tribes who stood against him and what Idi Amin did to the Muslims? Guess I’m a Rhodesian now lads. Getting me FAL as we speak.
Teenagers who idolize Rhodesia aren't any better than Teenagers who idolize Communist regimes. Both the Commies and the Rhodesians had a sort of charm about them, which is why teenagers who are desperate to seem cool and be accepted by others gravitate towards them. Unfortunately, fighting for freedom against oppression isn't always as charming and endearing as the entities that they fight.
Rhodesia, for all its flaws, was still a model for African nations to follow. Of course it needed reforms and to integrate the black majority into more government positions, but the basic structure of the government shouldn’t have been sabotaged and destroyed. The consequences of that happening have been disastrous, and Zimbabwe seems to only just have some semblance of recovery.

As a white Zimbabwean, I can say Rhodesia had its brilliant points as well as its flaws. We had a good, prosperous, well-run, well-lead, successful nation. A good, noble and kind people with a good, courageous leader. To this day, I am proud of my nation and countrymen. However the way we treated the blacks was deeply unfair and wrong. Rhodesia is gone now. We should have integrated the Africans into our government along with us whites. Creating an equal country for all. Blacks and Whites United. However, I have a dream that Zimbabwe will rise again. It will, mark my words. A Wildlife Capital and Breadbasket of Africa once again. Successful, prosperous and free. A land Built on Loving Kindness, Compassion, Unity, Tolerance and Friendship for all living Beings and people. A land where our wildlife and national parks continue to thrive, the people are happy and the country one of the richest in Africa again. Zanu PF will fall. We the people will rise. All of Zimbabwe, both human and animal will be happy, healthy, loved and protected. It is coming. It will be done. Amen. 💚💚🇿🇼🇿🇼🐾🐾

@Kristina Indriliunaite Notice! To the right wing extremists from the USA and beyond who likely will reply to my comment, I will politely say your ideals are no longer tolerated here. Your beliefs are fast dying out. We Rhodesians fought against hate and the nazis so you wouldn't find a place here even if Rhodesia still existed and would be kicked out of my country as what happened to US extremist Harold Covington. You will find most white Zimbabweans and South Africans today deeply opposed to your hateful dogma. Yes, I am proud to be white. I do not support woke ideologies. I may be no liberal. But I firmly believe with all my heart that Loving-Kindness, Unity and Tolerance is the only way for humanity to evolve and move forward. All people and beings are equally important, all deserving of kindness, compassion and respect. You may not like it but it's the truth. Please either evolve and change for the better or die off. The choice is yours.

Unfortunately, fighting for freedom against oppression isn't always as charming and endearing as the entities that they fight.
RHODESIA NEVER DIES
Rhodesia, for all its flaws, was still a model for African nations to follow. Of course it needed reforms and to integrate the black majority into more government positions, but the basic structure of the government shouldn’t have been sabotaged and destroyed. The consequences of that happening have been disastrous, and Zimbabwe seems to only just have some semblance of recovery.
